I found it very helpful to focus on one aspect of ICT
that I could use and her step by step guide was so
easy I have already started.
Linda - Questioning in a Junior Classroom
Questioning skills.
Getting chn to ask 'Fat' questions rather than 'Skinny' questions.
Set up an 'I wonder....' board. Chn ask a question and then the class
finds ways to answer the question.
Setting up a 'News and Views' wall.
Great activities to encourage and develop the ways children can ask
good questions.
Derek - Using ICT tools to develop thinking skills and inquiry
For me how I'll use the ICTs discussed to support learning and thinking in our school.
The other search engines like Kosmix that organise info for you.
The internet tutorials website-wow! have already accessed that one.
This has made me consider what we currently do and use, what we could be using.
Derek's discussion around the lack of ability children have to use graphic organisers
has caused me to look at the examples he suggested
Useful for sharing with parents.
Bernard - Assessment using SOLO and rubrics
I am still learnig to write good rubrics, and this really helped
I am over my fear of skills based everything and can see how this will help children in the classroom learn
Derek Wenmoth - Preparing Learner's for the Future
The world is changing at a rapid pace...soon our world
will look quite different to how it does now.
We need to teach our kids transferable skills
as we are not sure what they will need in the future.
